The story is from Florida, but the story is too sweet to pass on. Realize that we at ’til it breaks have to rely on these corporate media assholes for stories even while we hate their guts. So it don’t get any better than this.

Some pushy reporters with two filming cameras knocked on a door in their search for a sensational story about underage stripping. The lady of the house came out wielding a garden hoe and chased off the reporters, and struck a video camera with the hoe at least once.

We are not providing the video link because the badass camera-smasher obviously didn’t want to be filmed.

One person made a 17-hour standoff against the police at a home in southwest Colorado when deputies attempted to serve warrants for a robbery. One deputy was shot in the arm but not seriously injured. In the end, the person was killed.

Spree of 17 bank robberies meets tragic end

kdvr: LONGMONT, Colo. – A man believed to be responsible for 17 bank robberies in Colorado, Kansas and New Mexico is in custody after an SUV matching the suspect vehicle description was pulled over in Longmont Thursday afternoon.

The FBI says an alert bank teller at First Tier Bank in Boulder saw a male matching the description of the so-called ‘Shaggy Bandit’ enter the bank, and then leave without incident. That employee called 911.

Police pulled over the suspect, identified as 29-year-old Michael Kincade, and the driver of a maroon Ford Bronco, 45-year-old Christopher Richardson, in the parking lot of a Red Lobster in Longmont.

Both were taken into custody without incident.

He’s suspected in more than a dozen robberies in Colorado, mostly in the Denver area. The FBI also believes he robbed a Wells Fargo in Albuquerque, N.M., on June 30 and a Peoples Bank and Trust in Hutchinson, Kan., on July 14.

The headquarters for the Colorado Democratic Party had eleven windows smashed out early Tuesday morning. It happened on exactly the one year anniversary of the Democratic National Convention. The person arrested for the act was bailed out from the Denver County Jail on Wednesday.

Reclaims streets from stuffiness and boredom

Communique:

It all started this morning. With a declaration of war between two collective houses:

….We expect to meet you in a splashing good fight. Be Ye There, or Be Ye Square.

It ended in a pitched battle in the roundabout at 7th and Main, that stop traffic, reclaimed our streets for something other then just the same old consumption and capitalism. A bus-driver stopped his bus in the roundabout and demanded a balloon and threw it into the melee. Traveling kids, collective members and some not-so innocent by-standers, all liberated the stuffy through-fare of commerce for a bit of fun, and some much needed cooling down on this 100 degree day.

The Fun Liberation Front, is everywhere, is no where, is everyone, no one, and any one. Take up this name and liberate your day from wage-slavery, traffic cops, consumption, and boredom. See you in the streets.

This story is about a week old; we missed it on the mainstream news but picked it up from our buddies at Snitchwire:

A workers compensation investigator in Denver was saved by his backpack when his surveillance target, claiming he was unloading “at a bear,” plugged him four times after allegedly yelling at the PI. Eh… However…

“The operative – whose name is withheld here for his safety – told officers he was conducting an investigation regarding possible insurance fraud. Court records indicate he was working for Pinnacol Assurance, Colorado’s largest worker’s compensation insurance provider. It regularly retains private investigators to watch employees who have submitted worker’s compensation claims, to try to obtain video documenting that the employee is not injured, not injured as severely as they claim, or not hampered by the injury in the way they claim.”

What an asshole! After Marshall Lawson fired his .22 at “a bear,” he was subsequently arrested after the PI (unnamed) drove back into town, realized he had nearly been killed, and called the police. Lawson is being held on first degree attempted murder charges with bond set at $150,000. Fucking bears.
